    Sanders also reiterated his prior condemnation of the Hamas attack, calling it a “major setback for any hope of peace and reconciliation in the region – and justice for the Palestinian people.”

    There was never any hope of peace and reconciliation and justice. 🙄

      Yeah I have no idea how these people don’t get it. Are the Palestinians expected to just accept having their calories counted and reduced, their water limited, and their electricity shut off? Like what sort of peace do you think is possible?

        No, not with any knowledge of the last 70 years in the region.

        Extremists on both side of this conflict want nothing but the extermination of the other and have been saying so for decades.

        The world has been trying to broker any sort of solution for all that time but the political leaders on each side do not believe the other has a right to exist.
